Cyclone Idai: Ways to Respond
On March 14, Cyclone Idai made landfall at the city of Beira, Mozambique. The cyclone slammed into the southeast African country as a high-end Category 2 storm with 110 mph winds at midnight Thursday, causing widespread devastation, before moving inland into Zimbabwe and Malawi. Aid agencies fear that as much as 90% of the city of Beira, Mozambique may be destroyed.
The Mozambique Initiative is in contact with Ezequiel and other conference officials who are now on the ground in these areas to assess impacts. Rev. Lucas Endicott is in contact with partner annual conferences and organizations in the USA and in Mozambique to be fully informed.
